Today’s episode is a very special one. I'm chatting with someone whose work has deeply influenced me - and our Dream Life community - over the years… the incredible John Soforic, author of The Wealthy Gardener and now The Five-Year Crusade: The Easy Way to Achieve Your Impossible Goals.

If you’ve followed me for a while, you’ll know just how much I love The Wealthy Gardener.

So when John released this new book, I was beyond excited - and couldn’t wait to bring him back on the podcast to unpack it all with you.

We talk about everything from dreaming big and structuring your life for success, to simplifying and slowing down in the pursuit of a more meaningful, purposeful life.

And what I love about John’s approach is how grounded and practical it is. No fluff - just real wisdom that you can apply daily.

So go grab a coffee or a cup of tea, settle in, and be prepared to rethink what’s possible for you in the next five years of your life.

...and we're reading Johns new book in my book club GROW this January. Join us!

As always, I’d LOVE to hear what resonated most with you - so please share and let’s keep the conversation going in the Dream Life Podcast Facebook Group here.

…and remember, it all starts with a dream 💛

Welcome to another short but empowering episode of Monday Motivation, giving you a dose of inspiration as you head into your week...

Today, we explore the beautiful Zen proverb that reminds us that calm is not passive, but a powerful inner achievement we can choose – even in the busiest season of the year:

“To be calm is the highest achievement of the self.”

Three key takeaways you can expect:

1. How to create micro-moments of stillness in your day - in as little as 30 seconds - to gently reset your nervous system.

2. How to lovingly lower the bar and simplify December, so it feels more present, joyful and aligned with what truly matters to you.

3. How to protect your energy and prioritise intentional rest, so you can show up as your best self for the people and projects you care about.

Listen in and feel inspired to slow down, breathe, and make small calm choices that move you closer to living your dream life - whatever that looks like for you.
